What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

It is really longing for its non-caring owner to move him to that shady spot.It looks kinda lonely in that big yard all by itself looking back inside for some attention. It might a like a playmate.
Orange on green in the sun... I'm sure Japanese artisans and farmers have a real appreciation for them together. I sure do.
The little B has been indispensable on the 'grill porch' project. Was excellent at carrying tools and materials up from the barn and then moving stones and gravel (for dog run).
What is a 'grill porch' you ask? It's a place to store grills & smokers outside (behind those sliding doors) to solve the first world problem of still wanting to do this when it's raining.

Had 21t of fill delivered and spread almost all of it.
The border of our lawn and woodsis was fairly steep. That where any vehicles, including the tractor, travel to get to the back of the property. It was always a pucker moment when carrying anything heavy on the fel, no matter how low it was. I ordered a load of fill yesterday (2"-) and it was delivered this am.
Most was used to kind of level the path where vehicles travel and some was used to add mass around 2 of the I beams I just planted. I'll spread the yard or 2 that's left tomorrow. The material was just back bladed with the bucket. After another load is spread the box blade will be used to finish it. It has made a big difference already. With a heaped bucket I was wishing the ballast box I put together (~750lbs) weighed more!

My tractor is at the dealership getting 3 remotes and a top and tilt kit installed.
Good day. That’s great. What pushed you over the edge on the TNT? I have remotes which is handy with my hydraulic back blade…but my back blade kind of a pain to hook up…I wonder TNT would help that (it sags so makes the QH20 not helpful). Anyways, just curious.

I have a 1025# Bison blade that does everything: angle, tilt, offset. It’s a bit of a brute to manually adjust. I wish that I could get 4 factory remotes because the blade has 3 adjustments plus the top link. I won’t need the tilt cylinder on the blade, since I’ll have it on the 3ph. I installed a manual ratchet link for the offset function on the blade, so I guess I’ll just install the angle cylinder on the blade. I’m hoping that I can just pull the pin on the angle cylinder to reverse the blade.

Nice! I wouldn't have a tractor without three rear remotes and top-n-tilt. If you have a Quick Hitch, top-n-tilt makes hooking up to compatible implements about as easy as anything can be.

I don’t have a quick hitch, but the extendable lift arms make attachment of implements pretty easy.

I took the M6060 and RC3712 out to my friend's place late yesterday afternoon and did 1-1/2 hours of cutting before he called me inside for dinner. I left the tractor at his place last night and will be back over there Sunday morning to finish.
The vegetation is fairly thick in places so I was running in mid range, 2nd gear at 2mph which works well.
Once I've made one pass over everything I'll run around again at "high speed" to get any areas that I missed. I'm still learning the technique of making turns without missing sections. One thing is for sure, no neck pain this morning since I rarely need to look over my shoulder running this thing.

Gave a stump bucket a try. 4" stump took about 3 minutes to dig out. Not much of a workout but something different to try.

If you don't mind me asking what brand of wood boiler are your running and are you running storage with the boiler. I have a Garn that just started leaking again yesterday. Might be time to look at a different brand.
